Not to be confused with JC Member 60, 366 posts SQ 140, BP 75, DL 150365.0 kgs @ 125kgs UnEq | Post Edited: 15.08.2007 @ 11:45 AM just thinking of a bit of a routine while i carnt squat or dead, so upper body strengthso shoulders and chest, was thinking of doing these on same day, but unsure if i do somat like 5x5 on each or low rep high set. would it be to much on my arms? then upperback and maybe good mornings to try and keep some strength in lower back. what you guys reckon, reckon i got another month or two with the bust knee. any ideas of a routine. much appreciated. only looking at 2 days a week cheers | ||

 a large fingered spastic that demolishes plant Member 89, 31706 posts SQ 260, BP 220, DL 290770.0 kgs @ 142kgs UnEq | i don't think goodmorning would be good for the knee, if you could do chest supported rows, pulldowns to the chest and behind the neck, also face pulls and seated shrugs this will take the risk of further damaging you knee away. hope it gets better soon | ||

Not to be confused with JC Member 60, 366 posts SQ 140, BP 75, DL 150365.0 kgs @ 125kgs UnEq | just done a search on them, look intersting. ive been doing weighted hyperextentions, forgot to put that. what you reckon tho, on a rep/set basis. pyramid most of them, or have bench and military press pyramid face pulls, hypers etc maybe a 3x8 and rows pyramid or 5x5????????? and reckon i could split like that ok? sorry for being a numpty but still new to training for strength so still get it a bit wrong, hence why i need to check with you guys | ||

 Does f*ck all for SugdenBarbell.co.uk Member 1, 7173 posts SQ 182.5, BP 110, DL 205497.5 kgs @ 107kgs UnEq Administrator | Don't do 5x5 for everything... it takes too long and it gets too boring. If you do it I'd do it for the first exercise of the day, then do a different scheme on your assistance. You can also do an incremental 5x5 - e.g. 100x5,110x5,115x5,120x5,125x5 | ||
